The Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County, Texas (METRO) will offer complimentary rides to and from the polls on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3, helping Houston-area residents access transportation to exercise their right to vote.
Customers can receive a complimentary ride to the polls by showing their voter registration card to a METRO operator or fare inspector when boarding.
The initiative will be available on Election Day, November 3, only, through the following METRO services:
• METRORail
• Local bus routes
• METROLift
• METRO curb2curb
• Community Connector
“Every voter deserves the opportunity to make their voice heard, and transportation should never stand in the way,” said METRO Board Chair Elizabeth Gonzalez Brock. “I want to thank Mayor Whitmire for his continued leadership and for continuing this partnership. METRO is proud to do its part by helping Houston-area residents get to the polls and exercise one of our most important civic rights.”
Complimentary rides to the polls are available on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3. Regular fares apply during early voting and on all other days.
Voters are encouraged to plan their trips in advance using METRO's Trip Planner at RideMETRO.org and confirm their polling locations before traveling.
Your voice matters. Make a plan to vote and let METRO help you get to the polls.
